The NOP division of Konkola Copper Mines Plc (KCM) has been mining copper ore at their Chingola operation for almost 50 years. Concern was expressed about the risk to personnel and the possibility of a slope collapsing before all of the ore had been extracted on the 330m bench. In conjunction with SRK, KCM contacted GroundProbe Australia and fast tracked the importation of a Slope Stability Radar System (SSR).
